At the Sharjah Aquarium on Al Khan Road, the watery attraction is turning into a mini-festival site over four days this month. Aquatic-themed entertainment and education attractions such as a light show, a puppet show and a water and bubble show are all part of the line up.

Workshops for kids of all ages will be hosted so that they can enjoy the different kinds of fish species living in the aquarium. Life-size models of sharks to seahorses and all the critters in between will recreate the mysterious world of the deep sea, with bubble machines and aquatic sounds adding to the watery experience. Running daily from 5:30pm to 10pm, the free-to-enter event is a great chance for children and families to learn about the UAE’s incredible marine life and the importance of protecting it.

Sharjah Aquarium Carnival will run for four days from Feb 23-26.
